IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: When using electrical products, basic precautions should always be followed, including
the following:
DANGER: Risk of electric shock. Connect only to circuits protected by a Ground-Fault
Circuit-Interrupter (GFCI) or Earth-Leakage Circuit Breaker (ELCB). Grounding is required. The unit
should be installed and grounded by a qualified service representative.
WARNING: Risk of electric shock. A licensed electrician should route all electrical wiring.
WARNING: Risk of electric shock. Disconnect power before servicing.
WARNING: Unauthorized modification may cause poor performance of the valve. Do not make
modifications to the valve as this could adversely affect the performance of the valve and void the
warranty. Kohler Co. shall not be liable under its warranty or otherwise for personal injury or damage
caused by any such unauthorized modification.
WARNING: Risk of injury or property damage. Please read all instructions thoroughly before
beginning installation.
NOTICE: Follow all plumbing, electrical, and building codes.
NOTICE: Provide generous, unrestricted service access to the valve. Provide access for servicing the
valve and interface. This access must be located immediately next to the valve. Refer to the roughing in
information.

Roughing-In
Before You Begin
CAUTION: Risk of product damage. The power supply and valve are rated to operate in temperatures
up to 104°F (40°C). Do not install the power supply or valve under a whirlpool surround or any
location where the temperature may reach temperatures over 104°F (40°C).
CAUTION: Risk of product damage. This valve contains plastic and rubber components; do not apply
excessive heat near the valve or apply flux or acids directly onto the valve.
CAUTION: Risk of product damage. Do not apply petroleum-based lubricants to the valve
components.
CAUTION: Risk of product damage. Inlet and outlet threaded connections should be made using
sealant tape or liquid sealant. Do not use oil-based, non-setting compounds, such as plumbers putty, on
the threaded connections.
CAUTION: Risk of solenoid failure. No outlet should not flow more than 10 gal/min.
Observe all local plumbing, building, and electrical codes.
Provide access for servicing.
Read these instructions and determine all required components along with their installation
locations before beginning this installation.
For optimum performance, 3/4″dedicated water supply lines are recommended.
A minimum 2″(5.1 cm) drain or a drain system capable of handling a water flow of 20 gpm (76
lpm) is recommended for this installation.

Before You Begin (cont.)
If possible, flush all piping thoroughly before installing the valves to prevent clogging the inlet
filters.
A licensed electrician should install a 120 V GFCI electrical outlet, within the stud framing, in close
proximity to the valve.
If possible, install the electrical outlet prior to installing the valve.
A dedicated water heater, 80 gallon (302.8 L) or larger, is recommended for this installation.
This valve complies with UL1951, ASME A112.18.1, ASSE 1016, CSA B125, and CSA C222 No.
218.2-93. This valve is listed with ASSE, CSA, IAPMO/UPC, and UL.
Kohler Co. reserves the right to make revisions in the design of faucets without notice, as specified
in the Price Book.

1. Valve Mounting Configurations
CAUTION: Risk of product damage. Do not mount the valve with the inlets located at the top.
Vertical and horizontal mounting options are shown above. Do not mount the valve with the inlets
pointing up or vertically with the inlets at the top.
Mounting on a Horizontal SurfaceMounting on a Vertical Surface
Do not install with inlets
pointing up or at the top.

2. Component Configurations
NOTE: Preprogrammed component configurations are shown; other options are possible. Use of
configurations other than the preprogrammed options will LIMIT the preprogrammed massage functions.
Massage functions that correspond with custom configurations can be programmed. Refer to the
″Digital Interface Homeowners Guide.″
The bodyspray to valve outlet ratio must be equal for all bodysprays installed. All bodysprays must
have equal flow rates; unequal flow rates will cause the massage mode to shut down. See examples
below:
Correct: For an example with four installed bodysprays; one bodyspray to one valve outlet (1:1) using four
valve outlets (Envelop).
Incorrect: For an example with four installed bodysprays; two bodysprays each installed to one valve outlet
(1:1) and the other two bodysprays installed to one valve outlet (2:1).

5. Custom Component Configurations
Draw in the components for your custom shower.
Draw lines from the valve to each component. Be aware that:
•Outlet 1 is always recommended to be the primary showerhead.
•The installer must determine the desired sequence for Single mode and plumb the ports to the
bodysprays accordingly.
•Custom mode will allow the user to select a different water outlet as the primary showerhead, but it
is not recommended.
•In Custom mode, the bodysprays will cycle up the solenoid bank regardless of which port is the
primary outlet.
